The Dean Conklin Plumeria Grove is part
of the Honolulu Botanical Gardens system. It is located in Koko
Crater along the eastern side of Oahu. It isn't easy to find; use
the driving instructions listed on John
Murray's page and the Expedia
street map.

The plumeria trees surround the
entrance to the garden and extend along the trail that lead to the creater.
You can see in the panoramic photo below that the trees are planted close
to each other. This is a well-maintained, although somewhat
incompletely labeled, collection.

The end of April appears to be a peak
flowering time for these trees. Most were full of flowers on this
day, much as they were just a year earlier.

The photos that follow are a simple
attempt to show some of the variety displayed in the garden. If you
have critical concerns about the identification, you should contact the
garden staff directly (808-522-7060).

The accession number shown below each
flower is from a sign adjacent to the tree or from a tag attached to the
tree. The name comes from either the tree sign or John
Murray's accession list. Warning: the names given here are not
authoritative!

Only about
one-third of the accessions on John Murray's list are shown here.
